CHILDREN, families and staff at Ty Hafan have been proudly showing off their new website!
The Children's Hospice in Wales is promoting its new window to the world, which allows a look into life at this very special place.
Browsers can learn about 'how we help', and they can 'take a tour' around the hospice, discover how to 'get involved' - as well as understand why the children and families love to spend time at this haven by the sea.

The site, developed by Precedent Communications, aims to create a highly interactive experience, with opportunities for people to have their say and get in touch with the people best able to answer their queries.
It is built to high accessibility standards, making it available to all, regardless of disabilities or the technologies they use to access it.
Alex Bruce, IT manager at Ty Hafan, said: "The site makes use of social networking media such as YouTube and Flickr to display videos and slideshows.
"It also allows people to post stories of interest to their profiles on Facebook or other networking sites. We hope this will give us wider exposure and help raise awareness of Ty Hafan."
Ty Hafan Chief Executive Ray Hurcombe said: "We think the website gives a real flavour of the hospice, and Ty Hafan as a charity.
"It is bright and inviting as well giving families and supporters all the relevant information they need, and shows how we are helping to make a real difference.
